FCS3-615: Healthy Choices for a Healthy Heart
Authored by: Heather Norman-Burgdolf
Abstract
Heart disease and cardiovascular disease are two terms that mean the same thing. These terms refer to all diseases of the heart and blood vessels. For example, heart disease includes heart attacks, strokes, atherosclerosis, heart failure, and other conditions of the heart and blood vessels. Many of these diseases have a similar underlying cause---a build-up of fat in blood vessels.
